They were with you for so many life experiences, shared your ups and downs, those are big holes in your day to day life. How fortunate to have enjoyed so many years together, though. When my 19 year old died it was very mixed for me – she was old and needed to go, and I understood that, but she was with me through so many times that she left a void. It’s been long enough that her memory always brings smiles, but it takes awhile to get there. Please keep letting us know how you are. -

Stephen, I don’t believe we’ve met Victoria before. I remember Ariel. Did they live with you at the same time? We grieve and heal in our own times and I hope sharing your pain, and stories with us helps you to know you have caring people who truly understand with you to move through it. It’s really hard. Victoria’s eyes are soulful – she was a sweetheart, wasn’t she?-

Dawn, It’s shocking to not have a warning, but for Ginger’s sake, to pass in her sleep without suffering was a kindness to her. You should still be reeling and in pain – what a terrible shock and loss. I am very sorry and sad for you and hope you will allow yourself to stay with your grief as long as you need. One day you will find smiles before tears when thinking of Ginger, but that only comes with time. What a sweet face. Was she a mixed breed? How long were you together? How did you meet? Please let us know how we can help you, Dawn. I am sending you a HUG.-
Toni:
Thank you. I met Ginger at a Pet Smart on Mother’s Day 2010. There was a rescue there. I saw Ginger and we locked eyes. I knew I had to have her. They didn’t know how old she was. The lady said she rescued her from a Shelter in South Central L.A. as they were wheeling her to that dreadful ROOM! Thank goodness she did. Ginger was my soul dog. She was so sweet and everyone just loved her. The Vet thinks she was around 5 when I got her. She passed away May 7th. 2021. I had her for 10 years and 2 days. She passed away the Friday, of Mother’s Day weekend. She gave the best hugs, and was a wonderful dog. I miss her so much. 💔😥

This is my sweet Ginger who passed away in her sleep unexpectedly and suddenly May 7, 2021. I still can’t believe she’s gone 💔 😢. She was the best dog. I miss her so much.-

HI Dawn, I am so sorry for your loss … One of my soul dogs, Isaac, also passed away in his sleep – while it was shocking and difficult, I believe that it was a “gift” from God as He knew that I would never be able to say goodbye to Isaac. I’ve had to let so many of my special fur babies go, and making that decision is so hard – the amount of pain of loosing them is awful, then to have to make THAT decision to say good bye just makes it that much more difficult. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Hi Roy :-). Will you share some photos of their parents, please? We want to see how Keika and Capri look so different. Adorable, but not like each other! Thank you. -

Just got her kidney results and, while not improving, they are holding steady. She seems a bit better today and I’ll infuse saline at home more often – with compromised kidneys she tends to get dehydrated which, is very bad for pets and people. Thanks for listening. I hope it helps if you are having similar issues.

To our Community members, new and \”old\” 🙂 One of our main missions in this community is to share the joys of life with our faithful friends, but also to support one another as we anticipate, prepare for, or experience the death of a beloved pet. I\’m not sure what stage my beauty girl and I are in. She is 17 1/2 and we have been treating her for high blood pressure (remember when she suddenly went blind due to that? Her vision came back with the meds), hyperthyroidism, a progressive internal inflammatory disease, and failing kidneys. But, she seems to be feline fine 🙂 and is in good spirits. But, these past few days she\’s not been herself, and we saw the vet again today, had \’catupuncture and a saline infusion. We\’re waiting for the blood test with a kidney function reading. I\’m sharing this with all of you kind and caring pet friends of ours because that\’s one of our reasons for being together – to share what we\’re going through, good or bad, or uncertain. We\’re good for now. I sincerely having you all here to speak with. No need to comment. I just needed to get it out. Thank you, and HUGS all around :-). Toni -

Lisa, I meant to ask you – why the name “Binx”? It’s really fun and I wonder if it has a special meaning for you? -

Roy, you keep surprising me. I would have thought Keika would be the ball of energy :-). We’re going to enjoy watching them grow up! Thank you for sharing, and for the smiles 🙂 - Load More
